UNCLE JOHNNY'S TOOTH PULLING

STORY. As related by Obe Oilstone, the atulior of 'That Big Dog Fight at Myet's,' and other inimiitble aketchee, written cxpresaly fur the 'Spirit . of the Times.' Fayette, Jefferson Co. Mi. Jim. 15, 1845. Election day 13 a day away out here in the woods, and notwithstanding we have precincts scattered throughout the counties, yet the county seal is the place at which, most do congregate for the tripple purpose of voting, spreeing, and lastly, for the peculiar pleasure of witnessing the beginning aye "the opening of the ball," of the "Fall Fighting Campaign," which interesting event is usually postponed to that exciting period, when party excitement and individual misunderstanding, leave a man very litile hesitancy to "pitch" into his neighbor; this comes not ofiener than two years often enough, however, for 'regular work.' Having the common . anxiety to see (he first Regular dispatch," 1 arrived eaily at Fayette (our country scat) on the 4ih Nov., last, when and where I had the good luck to see the campaign open ; the anxiety among the numerous spectators, to continue the sport, was really commendable, iiolb clainv ed the victory, but the ring declared 'a dead match;' another heat was promised by the defendant I immediately staked a hat on itim 'what got gouged' ;. ..- ; Whilst standing in the crowd, a well known voice addressed . me, "Halloo, boy! come over here! How are you? I say it's your treat, now, certain. Come in , here men." 'Certainly, Uncle Johnny,' said I 'pleasure always to treat you.' . 'Me? I'm- if you dont treat the whole crowd! Rofser, tell all them mea to come in ! Hyena's brealein' chains and things. Eh ! You thot I d never see a paper, dnJ you? Well, well, I dont care a cuss about it mvsel but the fact is, 'Old IrooV in town now, and he says when be sees you thar ll be another dog fite, so if you see h;m gitiin anyways h'gh, tctarV your hoss? Well, well, jist keep out'n his way. Is you seea Wills sence tlicm fellers was a pulliu' out his tooth r . - What fellows?' was the immediate inquiry.. - . ", . 'Oh, oh! and so, my boy, you aiut said not hi n about it, eh? Well, that is .rich, fond of iutev stones, but never tells 'em, eh,! Well, I'll' Uncle Johnny dont tell tales out of sclioo', if you please. Recollect joa should do im 0 othersas ' .--.:.". :'. I am done by, that's a fact, by . Gracious, so I'll iist out with it.' You see, twas the night af'er the b-g'tliu-ner up here, and Wade got a crowd of! youngsters to go home with hira (or some ; fun. Jist afore they gits to! Wade's they; overtakes ine, and I took him at Irs first of- j far to go by, too he keeps good liquor, Wade does. . afier supper, 1 seen the boys was in for a frolic, t took two or tluee hands with 'em at cards, and after punisbin some; of the old elulT, I lays down. Well, I epote , it wanted about two hours to day, when 1 was roused bv the wakenest noise I ever nz to I cant hardly tell how I hey was all fixed in .

jtiiat room, out mar lay .wins nai on nis uacK,. iiU Um9 ,i,epii been ihrowa. on llie Hoor, a big niggerliolt of each hand,) holdin him spred out the Doctor settinj And bless that gift! it hath a gentle might,

straddle of his breas', id his shirt tail, with a pair of bullet moles in his hands try in to pull out one of his teeth! Then thar sat II. B nee, from Claiborne couniy, at bis head a holdin the candle, ahd every now and 'then lie would reach one hand over and hysi Wills' upper lip for the Dr. to get the moles onto his toolh. Henry had a big pair ol goat locks under his chin, and ia peepia over at the opperctinn he'd git 'era right over the candleiSahey'dfirtflg'e'. I see him keepturnin up his nose like he smell somethio a burnin but he never dreamed it was his whiskers. Wills was a grontln powerful, and what between gruntin and the hiccups I thort he'd slranglr. Major Bob was thar, too, and he bad ou a wonderful short shirt for a big Tut man. He swore he could beat that Doctor x a ill i t pullin teeth and he was a hollerin for his' insterments!' (a hammer and a, nail,) to Inock it out I They got the nail and as 1 hey couldn't find a hammer, ia they fetched a pair of shoemaker's pinchers that's got a sort of hammer on one side. The Doctordropj d the moles, for he found out that every lime he'd Jerk they'd slip, so he sings out for the pinchers swore they were his favor-, ite insterments always used 'em beat pullicans to It ! Well, you never did seea drunken set so busy about a serious job! Every.one was ia ded eruest tryia to help Wills, and he was a taking oa wonderful, that's a fact! ! . The Dr. set to work with the pinchers, and there set Henry with the pleasinest counten-. ance (and when he gits three sheets spread, aud is tryin1 tc uutarl the fourth, he can just outlaugh the universe, or I'll . borrow a hat to go home with!) There sot Henry reddy to List Willis upper lip when the doctor would slagger that way. Well, he got reddy, Henry Listed his lip, and after two or three false jerks he found the hammer was n the wrong side of the ' pinchers ; for that tooth, so he turns ia and asks Wills on which side the akin tooth teas? He said he did'nt know1 So he fastens 'em onto a sound one on lolher side, but the Major bad got , impa- , tient so he riz pulled his shirt as low as he could git it, picks up the tongs, walks round and puts one foot on Willis's brest before the Dr., and says he, "Doctor, you've been s;ttin across that man for three hours! You ' cant pull no tooth nor never could! Git up man, git up, I can jist take these tongs and pull his tooth in half the time." But he had'ut a chance to try, for Henry, who had been leanin over to Wilis's lip, puts his chin right over the candle, and before he knowed it his , whiskers was in a big blaze! He drop3 the candle. wiiJi whooze" right iuto Wilis's face niczers let coand iumpt Bob and the Doc tor ieil in a lump, tones and all. Wilis riz to his all fours and made for the gallery with the stranslinest hiccups I ever heard! I ful lered the man out I raly thort he wasstranglin to deth, but he had riz tip by the gallery post and was a heavin and settiu! It beat all tooth pullins I ever seen. SaysI,'Curnel, what's you doin?' Says h, 'tryin to throw
